With this app it popped as malware and I was able to delete it finally (after a year of having my iMac). I had wanted to remove some apps that I suspected of malware when i got my mac but wasnвЂ™t able to remove them.

I had been looking for a free app to use for virus protection. I have recently downloaded the newer version. Thank you Intego for the amazing virus scanner. I just want to say that this virus scanner found what big name ones were not able to find. I am not having anymore issues with popups at this time. I followed the path that VBE gave at the end of the scan and deleted the file. It was a jpg file from a game that I had downloaded and was stored on my secondary partition. Well guess what? VBE found a file buried in a content folder that was infected. I had downloaded it when I got my macbook in 2014. I was going through my purchased apps when I saw VirusBarrier Express in the list. Avira, avast, mackeeper, clamv, bit defender, komros and several others and they never found anything. I downloaded, purchased and ran a bunch of different antivirus apps. Started to research online but everything they said to do I had already tried. Went to one of the sites and dang if those popups didnвЂ™t start plaguing me immediately. Went so far as to wipe out my hard drive and did a complete clean install. I was having an issue with popups in my browser when going to certain sites. I have not used their tech support (havenвЂ™t needed to), so I cannot comment on that.

They update the software frequently (the virus definitions constantly, which is good), and they also have very nice thorough documentation and user guides you can easily find on their website. And I would also encourage you wholeheartedly to take a look at their range of offerings if you are in the market for security products. O happy day ! And if you are unfamiliar with Intego products, one thing I really like about them is that they allow YOU to configure their interaction with your system (read вЂњallows you to keep it out of your way, but use it when you need itвЂќ). But then one day, I come across this product, and frankly couldnвЂ™t believe it: you get the same full-hardcore industrial strength scan вЂ™n quarantine functionality, just without a price tag.

Getting the full suite (or I should say the revenue-driven rental model that I loathe) can be a bit expensive if on a strained budget, even if you can manage to catch one of the promos they run every so often (and I encourage you to watch for them, as they are really on sale). Love вЂem and more important, I *trust* them having that confidence in this type of software is paramount. IвЂ™ve had the full-meal-deal version of the Intego products for several years. Industrial strength (minus a few features) did I mention FREE ?
